Arrange Marriage, typical word for many people. So was mine. It happened to be day earlier i heard parents discussing about a girl. I rose from my bed and went up to them and asked,"what are u talking about ?"
My mother smiled and said, "Planning to meet your father-in-law." I just was coming back then all of a sudden it stuck me. "What! what are you saying ? All of a sudden from where he got born. what is this?" My dad, who was coolly smiling at the other chair was observing my reactions. God knows what why he was smiling by his unusual style.I straight away said "Nooo!!!...i dont want to meet the girl now. I am not ready for this right now". But as generations goes by tradition, i had to get ready to meet this proposal. Any ways my brother has already started teasing songs :(. No matter what situation would be he would recite some dialogues or song related to that. :) When the discussion was over and i came to my bed to walk out of all those staring faces. I laid on the bed and wondered what to do now. I twas evening by now and i went to make some tea.
After that i gave a cup to dad and had mine with mom. Then seeing all are free mind now i asked,"what is this?" She calmly said not to worry as this is not last one, you can go and just meet her and dont worry about any thing. I said.. but she convinced me. Finally i took some heart out of it and said to myself, "chalo dekh k aa jate hain aise bhi dekhne me kya jata hai :) " Night's over. Morning came up and as usual morning work is done and i was sitting and watching TV and sipping my tea. My mom shouted from inside the kitchen to have a haircut and do the shaving also. I said "No, i would do that evening." She shouted again saying evening there is a meeting for you so i have to go now. I finished up tea and biscuits and put on my old clothes and went to saloon. Finished my haircut and shaving and came home and took bath. Somehow time passed by and came the moment. I was getting ready to meet the girl..
I dressed my a nice lavender shirt and put on my leans and went to meet her. But what shall i ask. All those filmy dialogues came popping in my mind. I felt strange. I reached and so did she. our parents greeted each other and told us to have a talk. I looked at her at she started smiling but i was nervous. What to ask what to ask .. were just the question going round and round. I started the talk saying i am not having any topics to ask to you but if i say anything don't mind it. Again she smiled. I felt good by now for any one at-least smiled ant by stupidity( :P). I asked where do you stay and what work are you in. She started of brilliantly and was in no way shy. After few talks it was like.. Holy Gracious! I started talking with her freely now. I asked her regarding the family her places of work and wagera wagera... She was going on speaking and i was just like a toad listener. But she looked good. I felt a bit of blush coming now :).
Talks apart she asked my date of birth, my office and life in Bangalore. Three questions for a girl who can speak so profoundly. Somehow the talk was over and we greeted each other and left for the day.
putting all talks behind that happened today i had a (unofficial) Proposal Day. Meeting her in a so called eyes looking what shall i talk to her was rather ......... :) (and the story continues)
